Xmas morning

I have some time this morning as poor hubby is at work, Jack is in bed and Amy's gone off to church with her boyfriend. We are having lunch tomorrow so there's no stress. I recieved lots of lovely presents from family and friends.
I'm going to try and catch up on posting photos from this year.

Like xmas for Archie

The funniest thing happened last night. I was so pleased our daughter was home to see what un folded.
Now this is how it goes.
Darling hubby goes into the hall with a tub of doggy treats.
He started to fill the wall hanging advent calender.
It wasn't long before super dog got a whiff of what was going on.

Then it was up onto the radiator and help myself to a few treats.


Needless to say Hubby had to take them all out, Archie's a tall dog
We laughed for ages after.

Playing with new xmas stamp

I was lucky enough to go over to Barnard Castle on Wed evening and pop into Graphicus. My hubby, the kids and archie went for a walk while I watched Glenda and Lynn make some beautiful cards. I need to take a few photos.
Here are a few congratulations cards I made for Amy's friends for their A level results.

I've fallen in love with the art work of Mo Manning. It feels a little like cheating but the images are gorgeous. I used my copics to colour them, ideal when sitting with leg up.



Clarity shoe stamped onto patterned paper and then cut out.



Polka doodles cd ideal for the little girl next doors birthday, lovely cd to play with.



A rare photo of me, usually hate them. Hubby and I went off to York for 2 days and stayed in a lovely hotel, very relaxing.


A friend from work wanted a card for her brother in law who's into tattoos. Was pleased with the finished card.

I bought this stamp at the Harrogate show and love the image.
